ACL's would be one way to go. Try an ACE of the format: (IDENTIFIER=SYS$NODE_xxx,ACCESS=EXECUTE) where "xxx" is your node name You have to ensure that the protection check will fail if this ACE does not match: make sure there are no other ACE's that conflict, and that the protection bits are set to (S:RWED,O:RWED,G,W) (unless you don't want to grant access to the system and owner). I don't remember if there is a 'negated' identifier format in an ACE...if there is, you could say (IDENTIFIER=.not.SYS$NODE_xxx,ACCESS=none) and not have to worry about other ACE's or the protection bits. PS: SYS$NODE_xxx is an identifier created automatically by VMS, but you may choose to create it manually. It is granted to every user logged in on node "xxx"--dynamically, as they log in, like the identifiers INTERACTIVE, BATCH, LOCAL, REMOTE, etc.
